On 1 July 2007 virtually all enclosed public spaces and workplaces in England became smokefree.

The introduction of the smokefree legislation will save thousands of lives over the next decade by reducing the amount of second hand smoke in enclosed public places and workplaces, and will provide a more supportive environment for those who want to quit.

The implications of the legislation are wide-ranging and every local business is affected by it.  The link below provides guidance on how the legislation affects businesses and what businesses need to do to comply.  There are also documents available below to download.
